Chapter 36

Like this many days passed and the marriage day was approaching. All were engrossed in the arrangements. Happiness was about to come. Swaragini were happy that they are getting married to their love but at the same time were sad to the fact that they have to leave their parents home and get to settle at some other place for lifetime where they need to live a new life. They were quite nervous.

The gadodias were happy that their daughters are going to be part of such a nice family where people values relations.
Maheshwaris were happy to get the kind hearted girls for their sons who could manage their house and all the relations with great ability.

SanLak were eagerly waiting for the marriage day. But all was not well as it seemd to be.

A dark is shown where a person is sitting holding a photograph. Rage could be cleary seen in the eyes.

The person- I won't let u live so peacefully. U have stolen all my reasons to live but now i will make u pay for ur sins......(smiling evilly)

The photograph is revealed to be that of ragini. That person took a lighter and burns the photo and laughs evilly.

Finally it was the marriage day. Baadi was beautifully decorated with lights and flowers.

All were waiting for the baarat to arrive. Shekhar and dadi were checking all the arrangements. Sumi went to see whether the brides are ready or not.

Inside a room, a girl was shown in the bridal attire. She was looking herself in the mirror and had a smile on her face. She was looking so gorgeous that no one would be able to get their eyes off her. She was perfect in all ways. She turned towards the other side and her face is revealed to be ragini. Sumi came there and was awestruck to see her. She just stood at the door and looked at her from bottom to top. Ragini saw her standing there.

Ragini- Maa why are u standing there? Pls come inside.

Sumi comes inside and smiles.
Sumi- I was not able to get my eyes off from such a pretty girl.

She cups her face and a lone tear passes from her eye which didn't go unnoticed by ragini. Jus then swara too comes there.

Ragini- Maa.... what is this? Why are u crying today also....

Sumi caresses both her daughters' cheeks.
Sumi- Beta... these are the tears of happiness. Happiness that my daughters are going to step in a new life from today. Happiness that my daughters are gonna get so much love and respect from their new family. Happiness that my daughters are gonna get tied into such an auspicious relation today. But some sadness is there that my daughters are going to leave this house, going to leave me and.....

She was completing her sentence but swaragini pulled her into a hug immediately. Tears started flowing from their eyes too. Sumi caresses their heads and then broke the hug.

Sumi- What is this? U should not cry.... Sanskar and laksh will just run away from the marriage being scared when they will see their brides with swollen eyes.

The trio chuckled. Just then they saw shekhar, dadi and dida standing at the door with tears in their eyes too.

They enters the room and blessed SwaRagini.
Dadi sees ragini and reminisces all her times with her.

Swara took blessings from dadi. She blesses her and then again started talking to ragini.
(Though dadi had accepted swara whole heartedly but still she was connected emotionally more with ragini)

Swara felt a little bad and saw dadi, shekhar and even sumi talking to ragini. But them she brushed off her thoughts and smiled again.

Dadi- My little laado is now grown up. I wish janki was here to see u like this... she would have been proud to have such a wonderful and mature daughter. But i know she will be blessing u right now from wherever she is. (Ragini smiles and nods positively... shekhar and sumi too smiles)

Dadi hugged ragini tightly.

Shekhar too hugs her daughters and greets them best wishes.

Dadi- Now u both have to put the veil on ur faces.

Swara- But why??

Dadi- Because it is the tradition swara...... u both need to put the veil on ur face. 

Dida comes forward and after blessing both swara and ragini, took swara from there as she wanted to give her something which she had kept for her marriage.

Just then they heard the sound of crackers and the shehnais indicating that the baraat has arrived. Sumi dadi and shekhar went downwards to receive the baraat. Ragini went towards the window and sneakingly had a look at sanskar. Sanskar too saw ragini standing there and smiles looking at her.Both were smiling and waiting to be tied in a knot together.

The baraat arrived at the door and sumi and shekhar welcomed them.

Ragini went inside and started talking to janaki's photograph.


Swara- What happened dida? Why did u bring me here?

Dida gave her a bangle.
Dida- Shona... this is my bangle and i had kept it to give u on ur marriage.

Swara smiles and dida makes her wear it.
She said thanku to her and was about to leave but dida stopped her.
Dida- Wait shona....

Swara turned towards her.
Dida- I want to talk to u about something.

Swara- Yes dida.... say....

Dida- Shona don't take me wrong..... but u need to make a good place in the hearts of maheshwaris more than ragini.

Swara looks at her in confusion.

Swara- What do u want to say dida? Pls say it clearly...

Dida- Shona.... it is clearly visible that the mageshwaris hold ragini at greater respect than u because they consider her perfect as their DIL......

She looks at swara with convincing eyes but swara was still not able to get anything.

Dida- See shona.... i know u love her a lot.... and i too love her...... but sometimes too much attention and love makes people egoistic. And i think that she can take u for granted when she will get the attention of her in laws.....

Swara- What are u saying dida? It is nothing like that..... Ragini can never do anything like that...... And... and.... how can u say like that dida?

Dida- U are so innocent swara...... didn't u see even ur mother is all the time after ragini only. She gets everyone's attention. On the engagement day too, she and sanskar became the centre of everyone's attention...... I am not saying that she is such kind of a person... but u can not say anything about the future shona....... u need to be careful....

Swara gets into a deep thinking but dida just kept on convincing her.

Swara then brushed off her thoughts.
Swara- N..no...no...... no dida u are mistaken. And moreover laksh's family loves me and ragini equally. They never do any differentiation between us. So plss dida just don't think like this..... i know u are worried for me.... but trust me i will get the equal love and care there....

She smiles and left from there while dida looks at her with worried face.

Swara was in her deep thinkings. Her trance was broken once she was inside her room abd saw ragini sitting with the veil on her face. She was about to go to her but just then sumi comes there to take them down for the rituals. Swara too covered her face with the veil and sumi takes both of them down.

Sanskar was looking just towards the stairs in order to see ragini. Just then he saw two brides coming down woth sumi.

Sanskar (in mind)- Ohhoo.... why are they putting the veils? Now i need to wait more to see my beautiful wifey.

Shekhar came forward and made ragini sit besides sanskar and swara besides laksh. Sanskar was trying to see her face but her long veil was preventing him from doing so. Same was with laksh. He was also not able to look at swara. Both sanlak were just cursing the veils.

The preist asked both the couples to stand and make each other wear the garlands. Swalak and ragsan puts garlands in each other's neck. The family members started showering flowers on them.

They again sat down and the priest started chanting the manthras. All were happy to witness the milan of the hearts.

The preist asked to do the kanyadaan of the brides. Sumi and shekhar went forward and did the kanyadaan of both their daughters. Now was the time for the pheras.

The couples stood up for the rounds. The preist started chanting the mantras and RagSan and SanLak started taking the pheras.
